Liked: This hostel seems to have been a hotel before, being well managed with a long history. No party and quiet, anyway, in a colonial building. Big and small towels are provided for each dorm hosteler. Rooms don't have view except for the patio. The wood lockers were old. Colectivo No53 passes near the port of Colonia Express.

Disliked: I encountered mustard thieves everyday in downtown. They splashed smelled liquid into the air and made my clothes dirty. Argentina has double currency exchange rates. Although the guidebook says, "do not use them", the unofficial cambios gave us the real rate, I think.

Liked: We really liked that the owner is very receptive and gave us a quick class on places to go and what to do.

Disliked: We got the feeling that everything and everywhere was really safe but we should've been advised to catch buses or taxis to places as we were nearly assaulted near El Caminito and when we got back at the hostel, other guests also told us about how they DID get assaulted and had passport, money, phone, everything stolen.

Liked: Cozzy hostel in cozzy area, central and perfect to reach all the best in Baires. Nice staff, clean service everyday. Good breakfast, and perfect chilla rea, with tv, big table, sofa and computer. I loved my staying here, also cause is not a aprty hostel looking for drunk people, but it just does his job, that is offer an accomodation safe and comfortable.

Disliked: Nothing at all, maybe just the opportunity to leave stuff in a deposit box, and by night seems there is none checking if some stranger is entering in the hostel.
